Are you eligible?

Retired uniformed service members have different eligibility rules for dependents than civilian federal employees. Learn more about eligibility at BENEFEDS.

For the High plan, there are no deductibles. For the Standard plan, there is a $75 out-of-network deductible per person with no family limit for Class A, B and C.

1 These benefits are neither offered nor guaranteed under contract with the FEDVIP Program but are made available to all Enrollees who become members of G.E.H.A and their eligible family members.

2 If your out-of-network dentist charges more than G.E.H.A’s agreed-upon plan allowance for a specific service, you are responsible for the difference between the plan allowance and the out-of-network dentist’s charge plus regular coinsurance.

3 Two sets of bitewing X-rays covered per year for members 22 and under. One set of bitewing X-rays covered per year for members ages 23+.

4 Benefits are based on the plan allowance that is the amount allowed for a specific procedure.

5 Implants are limited to $2,500 per person per year in-network or out-of-network on High. For Standard, implants are limited to $2,500 per person per year in-network, or $2,000 per person per year out-of-network.

This is a brief description of services covered under the G.E.H.A Connection Dental Federal plan. For a complete list of plan limitations and exclusions, please refer to the G.E.H.A Connection Dental Federal plan brochure
